PlantX Announces Addition of Meal Programs to In-Home Meal Delivery Service
VANCOUVER, BC, Jan. 19, 2021 /CNW/ - PlantX Life Inc. (the "Company" or "PlantX") (CSE: VEGA) (Frankfurt: WNT1) (OTCQB: PLTXF) is pleased to announce the addition of meal programs to the current meal delivery services already available on https://plantx.ca/plant-based-meal-delivery/.
The new vertical will enhance the home-meal delivery service by cultivating a subscription-based "set and forget" option for consumers to have as many as 5 full days' worth of nutritionally-balanced meals delivered to their door. The meal programs are provided in partnership with "Upmeals" and delivered from their HAACP-certified production facility. These meals will be curated by Ms. Amy Gensel RD, CSNC and will be positioned as a simple way to incorporate healthy and nutritious meals for the PlantX community.
As part of this announcement, PlantX is pleased to welcome Ms. Gensel to the PlantX Medical Advisory Board. Ms. Gensel is a registered dietitian that specializes in nutrition support at the Veterans Affairs Hospital in Palo Alto, CA. She has a passion for wellness and is also a group fitness instructor. Ms. Gensel brings 15 years of experience as a registered dietitian to the Medical Advisory Board and believes that nutrition plays a crucial role in disease treatment and prevention.
"We couldn't be happier to have Amy on the Medical Advisory Board and helping us curate the meal programs. We're committed to educating the public about healthy living, and this is another step in the journey", said PlantX CEO, Julia Frank. "PlantX is focused on creating the ultimate customer experience that provides customers with flexibility for their food delivery options. PlantX meals will still be able to be ordered à la carte, but customers will now have the option to pre-order in 3 or 5-day quantities. This enhanced meal delivery service provides freedom from the hassle of cooking and meal-preparation".
"I'm so excited to be able to help curate healthy, plant-based meals for the PlantX community," said Ms. Gensel. "True fitness and health begins with what we put in our bodies."
The meal programs will initially be available only to the Canadian market. However, the Company hopes to expand the offering to the US market later this year.
